A Slice of Blood&Honey-Does It Hurt? The First Balkan Dogma

Does It Hurt? The First Balkan Dogma (Aneta Lesnikovska, Macedonia, 2007, DVD, 100 min)This film is reality based on fiction. It's director Aneta (lives and works in Holland) mixes her life and those of her friends with a fictional situation that she has invented herself. As most of her friends in her home country Macedonia are actors and filmmakers who do everything but act and direct (due to no funding possibilities in a land in transition), she decides to give them false hope in order to make her film. Aneta lies to her friends that she found producers who will fund her film if they will help her out by sharing their life stories. She films the whole process and what was meant to be the making of becomes the actual film. Film about the lives of Balkaners made from their own perspective.
